Don't these people realise they don't need to respond to everything with a strawberry floating stream of consciousness? I wish they'd just shut the strawberry float up and just get on with doing the job we all pay them for.

I'm glad our politicians don't feel the need to use it anywhere near as much.

A large swathe of the Baby Boomer generation behaves this way, in regards to matters like Brexit and climate change, among other things. They don't really care about the consequences of the policies they're so gammony to get put in place, because they won't have to suffer through the consequences.

It's not a surprise that Trump see things this way too. Of course, sadly he probably won't be dead by then.

To be fair to Orange Hitler, most politicians are the same. They only care about the immediate future and the best way for them to get re-elected.

It’s the biggest flaw in democracy, worrying about elections stops long term planning.

Actually, though, as pointed out by Rachel Maddow last night, Flynn, despite being seen by the SCO as an almost exemplary cooperator, seems to have been spared from any vitriol from Trump. Very strange.

Big day in two areas today. Mueller reports on Manafort's sentencing and lack of cooperation and SDNY reports on Cohen. It's just possible Donny is a little concerned judging by his twitter feed last night and especially this morning. #popcorn
